I'm going to start working soon so I won't be able to update too often. Another thing is so sorry the chapters are small, and that I keep making her sleep. But I assure you it'll be a while before that happens. Thank you for the reviews everyone, it makes me soo happy when I see them!

Chapter 2
"Hey, wake up kid." A voice spoke, a hand shaking her slightly to wake her. The voice was gentle with somewhat of a strong authority in it and the deepness showed it was a man around thirties.
Sammy mumbled something about evil creepy walking and giggling skeletons. She felt a man shaking her slightly and opened her eyes slowly to see a large man looking down at her with a gentle smile. She looked at up him; he looked somewhat like a man that would be mean. Just because of the hairy arms and the ponytail and the way he had his beard. But the smile he wore showed that he was anything but dangerous. She also noticed that she was no longer outside, but sitting in a warm comfy bed and her cloths were different and she was no longer covered in dirt.
"Well hello there. It seemed like you had quite the journey little miss. My names Talon and welcome to my Ranch." The man said proudly, holding his hands out to show her. She stood up, looking around she then glanced at her arm and noticed it wasn't bandaged, but the cut was no longer even there. 'Did I dream the whole thing?' She thought to herself, but knew it wasn't more then a thought.
"How did I get up here? And why are my cloths different?" She asked in a low soft voice as she looked up at him, a bit confused at all of it. She was now wearing a long brown skirt with some nice boots and a blue shirt that showed her eyes very well.
He brought his hand up to his chin and stroking his beard with his thumb as he thought to himself for a moment or two. "A young lad saw you there and came to wake me up and told me about you. I went down and saw you weren't doing well so I gave you some milk and my daughter Malon cleaned you and dressed you in some of her cloths. Well, I need to get to work, if you want to sleep you can. My daughter is with the horses out back if you wish to join her." He said and waved before walking out of the room and making his way downstairs.
Sammy thought for a moment. She didn't want to sleep, so she got up and fixed the bed she was in. She carefully remade the bed, tucking the sheets under the mattress, fixing it as best as she. She walked out of the room, closing the door behind her and made her way down the steps. Her boots made a light clicking noise as she walked, holding her dress up slightly so she wouldn't trip over it and hurt herself. When she made it down the steps she looked around at all the chickens. It smelt a bit strange as she walked past them, going outside she closed the door. She noticed the place from the night before, but now it was clearer because of the sunlight.
She walked past the gates, placing some of her orange hair behind her ear as she looked around. The Ranch was beautiful; it had really been well taken care of. The grass was a healthy green while there was a dirt track that had no rocks in it or anything that could hurt the animals that would be racing.
The air was clean and all the horses looked strong and beautiful. She heard someone singing, it was faint, but it could be heard. She smiled, seeing a girl standing in the middle of the horse pen. The girl looked about her own age and had long brown-red hair. She also wore a pale dress with some blue and yellow on it. The girl had her eyes closed as she sang.
She walked over to the pen and passed the gates, going over to her she smiled slightly. "Um . . . hello." She said, not wanting to be rude and just rant on when she was singing.
The girl opened her eyes and looked at Sammy. A bright smile spread across her lips as she looked at her. She clasped her hands together. "Hello! It's nice to see your awake and feeling better! My names Malon, my father owns the Ranch." She said brightly, smiling at Sammy.
"My names Samantha, but everyone calls me Sammy. Its nice to meet you Malon." She said with a smile. The girl Malon smiled and nodded before speaking. "Sammy? That's a weird name. Where are you from?" She asked brightly, her holding her hands behind her back as she moved to the sides, humming her song.
Sammy thought for a second and looked at the girl in front of her. "It's a town called Aylmer . . . So as you can see I'm lost." She replied quietly. She had never heard of Lon Lon Ranch before, nor had she ever seen anything like this. Sammy thought that she might have been in another world but that might be going too far. 'It can't be . . . different dimensions don't exist.' She thought. Malon tilted her head looking at Sammy.
"I've never heard of a place called 'Aylmer'." She replied. Sammy sighed, wondering what to do. She now was beginning to think she wasn't in her world anymore. Malon had noticed her sadness and frowned slightly. "Don't be sad. Maybe you can go see a great fairy for guidance. They're very smart and wise." She said, smiling and continued humming as the girl thought about her suggestion.
"Where can I go see one?" Sammy asked, not wanting to go outside again but she knew she didn't have much of a choice. But she would have to go during the day, and run as fast as she could. She thought that she might be able to get a stick or something from Talon to get those things away from her during the night. She watched Malon as she tried to remember where the Great Fairies were.
"I heard rumours from people that there's one at the top of Mount Doom. But even adults can't go there because it's guarded." Malon replied, now realizing she just put Sammy's hopes up only to put them down. She frowned looking at the girl in front of her. Sammy sighed softly, not knowing what to do anymore. The Great Fairy was her last hope, and she couldn't just give up.
"I'm going . . . but do you have a map I can use?" She asked.
Malon smiled and nodded. "Daddy has all kinds of maps! I'll get one from him!" She said brightly before running off torwards the house. Sammy blinked at her speed and glanced around. She looked at all the beautiful horses and saw one that she thought was adorable. It was still young, but it was completely black with a few white stripes on it.
She walked over to it calmly, not wanting to scare it she stood not far from it and spoke. "Hey there boy." She said in a gentle voice, though not having a clue if it was male or female. The horse looked at her, starring at her dumbly as if thinking. 'Are you talking to me?' even though all the other horses were on the other side. She walked over to it gently and began gently petting its long dark neck. She smiled as it nuzzled her shirt and continued petting it. "Well, it looks like I've made a new friend." She replied with a smile as it looked up at her and nuzzled her cheek. She giggled and turned when she heard footsteps.
She watched as Malon came running back holding a piece of paper while grinning. "I see you've made a new friend. His name is Reok, he was given to us by a man a few months ago." She said, smiling at the two. Sammy patted the horse's head before looking back at Malon.
"Did you get the map?"
"Yeah. Daddy says to take care and be very careful. The mountain is dangerous." Malon said with a slight smile as she handed the piece of paper to the girl. Sammy looked over it, being able to make out only piece of it. She had no idea what she was getting herself into, but she knew she couldn't just stay here. This wasn't her place and she didn't want to bother the ranch people anymore.
"Alright, I'll be going." She said with a slight, unsure smile. She was scared of what might happen, but she wanted to at lest know how she got here and where here was. She smiled at Malon and waved before quickly running at the entrance. She smiled slightly, seeing a branch on the ground she grabbed it as she ran, her orange hair blowing back from her pale face as she ran, her blue eyes sparkling with new hope. 'Maybe, I can find out what's going on.' She thought to herself as she ran out of the ranch.
